The first 10 electric buses for BC Transit are coming to the Victoria Regional Transit system next summer, marking the start of BC Transit’s transformation to an entirely electric fleet by 2040.
As part of the project, BC Transit recently welcomed the delivery of an electric demonstration bus provided by Proterra Operating Company Inc. (Proterra). The demonstration bus will provide valuable learning opportunities, helping BC Transit get ready to put its first 10 electric buses on the road in 2023.
BC Transit expects the demonstration bus to be on the road for testing and training sessions over the coming months.
